- A child was shot to death less than 5 miles from the state Capitol last night. Kids stood in his blood waiting for their morning school bus. Maybe our AG should look at the pain gun violence breeds in our communities before congratulating himself for a poorly timed culture war.WV will not accept these attacks on our Second Amendment.
- Well. My last day at the @wvgazettemail was supposed to be in two weeks, but that’s been moved up to TODAY. I was just fired and escorted out of the office for publicly criticizing the decision to platform Don Blankenship while lobbing softball questions at him.Strange things are afoot ̶a̶̷̶t̶̷̶ ̶̷̶t̶̷̶h̶̷̶e̶̷̶ ̶̷̶C̶̷̶i̶̷̶r̶̷̶c̶̷̶l̶̷̶e̶̷̶ ̶̷̶K̶̷̶ in WV’s local media market

- Every time I hear the argument that college students are young, healthy and don’t have to worry about COVID, I think of the friends I had who were cancer survivors and patients, who had lupus, were asthmatic, diabetic, etc. These people aren’t disposable. It’s their school too.
- Oh god Twitter comedians are learning about Babydog oh no god please no i beg you god no
- There’s a story from me in today’s @wvgazettemail that I am incredibly proud of. For the first time in a decade, residents in Keystone, WV have access to clean water. Please humor a small 🧵 on why this story in particular is so important to me...
